For the first time in 26 years, Ohio State has lost three in a row to Michigan after the Buckeyes dropped a 30-24 decision yesterday afternoon in Ann Arbor.
The defeat moved head coach Ryan Day to 1-3 in The Game as his offensive line and quarterback were inconsistent, the defense saw Michigan score on five of six possessions during one stretch and all four non-kneel down possessions in the second half, and special teams turned in its standard uneven performance.
To their credit, playing without head coach Jim Harbaugh, the Wolverines played to win and made the plays when it mattered most as acting head coach Sherrone Moore was the more aggressive play caller and decision maker.
